Instructions:

Step 1:

Get the 8-3/8″ x 5-1/8″ fusible fleece. From the top left corner, measure 5/8″ to the left and the bottom. Mark them using a pencil or pen then make a curve. Fold it in half and cut the curve. Fold again on the other side and make all corners curved. Get the other two sizes of fusible fleece. Use the round corners from the big fusible fleece to cut the corners on the top of the 8-3/8″ x 1-5/8″ and bottom of the 8-3/8″ x 3-1/8″.

Step 2:

Place all rounded fusible fleece on top of each outer fabric of sets A, B, and C on the wrong side. Press using an iron.

Step 3:

Get the 3 linings from set A and place them on top of each other right side up. Place the outer fabric with fleece on the top wrong side down. Do the same for sets B and C.

Step 4:

Do the same with the corners. Make them round by measuring 3/8″ from the corners. Set aside.

Step 5:

Get the 3 other fusible fleeces and place them on the wrong side of the outer fabrics of sets E and F. Press using an iron. Set aside.

Step 6:

Get set D and the zipper. Place the 2 linings on each end at the bottom of the zipper. Then the 2 outers are on top of the zipper. Secure them on the outer ends with pins then sew.

Step 7:

Get sets B and C. Place the zipper on the top edge of the outer fabric of set C right side up. Then place the lining on the top right side down. Sew the top edge with a 3/8″ seam allowance. Next place the outer fabric of set B on the bottom of the sewn fabric right sides together and place the lining on the top right side down. Sew with a 3/8″ seam allowance. Get 2 linings from set A and place one right side up below the zipper ( zipper facing up). Then place the other one below the other lining right side facing down. Sew them all together all around the edges.

Step 8:

Take set G. From one piece, measure 2″ up from the right side bottom corner and make a diagonal line from that to the bottom left corner. Get another one and do the same, but instead from the right side bottom corner start with the left side bottom corner. Place the remaining pieces wrong sides together with the lined pieces then cut. Place them right sides together. Measure and cut 8″ from the tape. Place it in the middle of one pair with the diagonal cut starting from the bottom left to 2″ right. Insert the other end of the roll of tape into the other pair. Secure with pins and sew with a 3/8″ seam allowance. Pull it right side out them top stitch.

Step 9:

Measure 1″ from both top edges of the outer fabric of set A then sew the handles on both sides. Sew the remaining lining on the back right side down.

Step 10:

Sew the set F to the edges of the zipper. Place the outer of set F on top of the zipper right side down then the lining on the bottom right side up. Fold it in the middle so all ends meet. Sew them with a 3/8″ seam allowance. Pull it right side out then top stitch with 1/4″ seam allowance. Sew it all around to the outer fabric with a zipper. Then next get the outer fabric with handles and sew on the other end to make the bag.

Step 11:

Sew the bias tape around the sides on the top and bottom. Pull it right side out and attach the buckle.
